Join us in celebrating the creativity and style of MICA’s students at the 32nd Annual Benefit Fashion Show!
The Annual Benefit Fashion Show (ABFS) is a student-led production entirely curated by student directors, photographers, and graphic designers. This annual tradition, founded by Dr. Frankie Martin and MICA’s Black Student Union, highlights student designers from a variety of majors and minors across campus.
For this year’s show, ABFS will be concurrent to MICA’s Bicentennial. As a way to explore the history of this institution, the designers have been asked to investigate the theme RECLAIM. In doing so, our show intends to inspire appreciation and action to preserve historic cultural art practices, and to question how we ensure these histories move forward with us. Through research, craft, & performance, our 8 collections explore what it means to acknowledge our roots as artists and take them into the future.

A group of teenage girls creates mass hysteria as they accuse fellow villagers of witchcraft in the rigid Puritan society of Salem, Massachusetts in 1692. The accused face the choice of maintaining their ideals or conforming in order to survive in this play about the dangers of unchecked fear, the fragility of justice, and the consequences of history.
Based on the beloved Newbery Medal- and National Book Award-winning novel—and the hit 2003 film starring Shia LaBeouf, Sigourney Weaver, and Jon Voight—this theatrical adaptation is a thrilling ride for audiences of all ages. When teenager Stanley Yelnats is hit by a pair of falling sneakers, his unlucky family curse strikes again. Wrongly convicted of stealing the sneakers and sent to the mysterious Camp Green Lake, Stanley joins a ragtag group of boys digging endless holes under the blistering sun—all in the name of building character. But as the layers of dirt pile up, so do the secrets buried beneath them. Part mystery, part adventure, and packed with heart, Holes is a wildly imaginative tale about friendship, fate, and the courage it takes to rewrite your story. Holes is “a fast-paced and inventive family show that works on every level” (The Stage).
